Bokashi buying guide
From newbies to compost masters, bokashi is for everyone!
Faster. Simpler. Convenient.
For those with a busy lifestyle, which is most of us these days, the Bokashi Ninja® in-kitchen composting system is the answer to easily managing our food waste and reducing our environmental footprint from the comfort of our kitchens.
Like outdoor composts and worm farms, bokashi composting does the same job. It breaks down organic matter, albeit in a different way.

*Bokashi fermented matter must be buried under soil so as not to attract flies and rodents. Fruit flies and rodents can be attracted to worm farms when food waste is added faster than worms can break it down.
